Example

%paste

%paste demo

This is the primary Magic Method for pasting. It directly pastes text from the system clipboard, intelligently handling common issues with newlines and indentation.

%cpaste

%cpaste demo

If you are using IPython via SSH, use %cpaste instead, as it does not need to access the remote system clipboard.

Since IPython 5.0.0, the improved prompt toolkit should directly handle pasting multi-line code without the need for %paste or %cpaste.
